Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 10
Claim 1
Independent Claim 61 words
A method for making bisimide which comprises (1) heating nitrophthalimide of the formula to a temperature in the range of from 100°C to 400°C in the presence of dipolar aprotic solvent and an effective amount of an alkali metal carboxylate, and (2) recovering bisimide of Formula 2 from the resulting mixture of (1), where R is C (1-14) monovalent organic radical.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 61 words
A method for making bisimide which comprises (1) heating nitrophthalimide of the formula to a temperature in the range of from 100°C to 400°C in the presence of dipolar aprotic solvent and an effective amount of an alkali metal carboxylate, and (2) recovering bisimide of Formula 2 from the resulting mixture of (1), where R is C (1-14) monovalent organic radical.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 16 words
A method in accordance with claim 1, where the alkali metal carboxylate is a potassium alkylcarboxylate.
